| That reminds me to check out Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai Matsuribayashi-hen. |
| I haven't even heard of Ao Haru Ride... anyway the list still has some well known titles One Piece,Gantz and Fairy Tail. Naruto seems to be dropping in sales. |
 |
| ...a cat is fine too. |
| I'll be getting BUTTER!!! out of the list. Mmmmm, Yamashita Tomoko |
| I did not expect Ao Haru Ride to be so popular, nor do I think it deserves top spot but whatever. Nice to see Zetsuen no Tempest and Shingeki no Kyojin up there. |
| Good to see Higurashi up there. I really need to read more volumes of those. And nice to see Usotsuki Lily doing well. Such a funny shoujo series. But what the heck is BUTTER!!!? |
| And Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai? :< |
At times, a sense of adversity strengthens men, giving them that troublesome feeling that they're fighting for a righteous cause. |
| a shoujo on top |
  |
| Shoujo this day are quite popular i see.. |
 |
Cholisose said: But what the heck is BUTTER!!!? It's a seinen manga that centers around a high school girl who participates in a dance club (think more ballroom dancing). It's all about her characters--Yamashita Tomoko was wildly popular for two of her works last year: her shoujo manga "Don't Cry, Girl" and josei manga "Her." And no, no one has shown good enough taste to translate/license either. |
| Madoka is becoming like The Idolmaster, selling better than sex. |
 |
| Glad to see Shingeki no Kyojin outsell Bleach. They are like manga. Great story and bad art (by general standards) of Shingeki no Kyojin versus bad story and great art of Bleach For once plot > art |
| Kekkaishi still kicking even though its done |
| Wow~ There's quite the amount of Shoujo manga xD dtshyk said: 11, *54,140 *,*54,140 Usotsuki Lily vol.5 A very cute series ;3 Glad to see it doing well. |
     |
| ao haru ride? Might check that out now |
 |

Great story and bad art (by general standards) of Shingeki no Kyojin versus bad story and great art of Bleach For once plot > art That is pretty much Bleach in a nut shell. All style and no substance. I must agree. |
| Don't worry, Bleach sells will rise again now that the childrens have what they want: Shinigamis. And I'm glad for Shingeki no Kyoujin's sells. |
| Hmm. Didn't expect much of that to be on there. Good for Gantz. I'm really happy that Fairy Tail's doing well. ^_^ I've never even heard of Ao Haru Ride. Either that just snuck up on there, or I am completely oblivious to everything. |
| shocked i didnt think that ao haru ride is going to be doing so well OwO;; since it just pretty much start a month or it not even that long yet!! but glad that fairy tail is doing well ^^ and hmm there a few of another shoujo i haven't hear it yet too i will check it out and on to my list!! |
| Woah, a lot of old mangas I recognize. Nice. |
  |
| Kobato. Vol. 6 is out! Must read when the official translation is released! |

dtshyk said: *1, 126,025 *,126,025 Ao Haru Ride vol.2 Yay for Sakisaka Io! I really need to read this work of hers asap~ Almost forgot about these two. <3 sharon1 said: otacu said: Glad to see Shingeki no Kyojin outsell Bleach. They are like manga. Great story and bad art (by general standards) of Shingeki no Kyojin versus bad story and great art of Bleach For once plot > art Plz tell me you were joking,bleach has good art?bleach art is shit and People overrate the fuck out of Kubo’s drawings. Hearing bullshit like “Kubo has the best art in WSJ” makes me laugh. Spewing black ink all over a page like a god damn octopus does not count as good art. Characters suffering from the only six faces trope does not help to cement it as “OMG TEH BEST EVAR!” either. Gigantic empty panels with almost nothing happening in them and mostly character reaction shots to events highlights poor composition choice. It is highway robbery that he draws so little in comparison to the other mangaka he is serialized with yet still has people humping his average drawings claiming his art is the best. Yeah, sorry but this does not qualify as “amazing art” at all. It is just a style that people have this ridiculous hard on for. That is pretty much Bleach in a nut shell. All style and no substance. Agreed! |

| Really happy to see Guyver on there. |

| fairy tail has already 28 volumes? O.o Nice |
| Ao Haru Ride is on first place! *.* So... when anime? xD |
    |
| Wow Ao Haru Ride at #1!! Awesome!! XD Great to see Chrome Shelled Regios in #3 for the light novels as well!! |
 |
| Shingeki no Kyojin doesn't have bad art NOW. It's art is very good just a different style than most of the manga out there |
